Did Obi-Wan have to many bong hits?

It seems to me that in RotJ while Obi-Wan and Yoda arer speaking as Luke is leaving; Obi-Wan says "That boy is our only hope" What did he happen to forget that Amidala poped out a girl, whom they gave to Bail to care for until the right time?

Yes, Yoda said there was another about 20 sec. later.

That's ESB, not ROTJ... Yoda was *dead* by the time Luke left in ROTJ. Get your movie facts straight...

Obi-Wan didn't forget Leia in ROTJ either remember

Perhaps he didn't think Leia would work. So that'd make Luke the only hope even considering Leia.

Agreed. Remember, Leia didn't even know she was a Skywalker at the time; there was nobody left to train her as well. Obi-wan and Yoda were both effectively dead. So unless Leia ran into a Jedi or two who had survived the purges, she'd continue as she was, marrying Han, probably dying in combat against the Empire.
